Saying Goodbye

Slice 3

Thank you to the authors at Two Writing Teachers for Hosting the 9th SOLSC

Today will be a hard day.  I have to say goodbye to one of my bosses!  She's retiring for health reasons.  (I won't go into that now.)  I had to share our story though because it has "Slice of Life" written all over it.

One of our colleagues put out an email yesterday asking all of us to send in pictures of us holding a dry erase board with a message of inspiration or thanks. She's putting together the pictures in a memory/photo book for our boss to look back at after she moves on to the next phase of her life's journey.  So my principal and I decided to take our picture together to send on for inclusion in the photo book.

We are thanking Jackie for the opportunity to work together as a principal and coach under her leadership.  She's brought a positive change to our coaching approach where we are working together as a team for the betterment of student achievement within the district...saying goodbye. is. hard.  We are #APSProud to have known and worked with her over the past few years.  She's such an inspiration.
